Killshot
Killshot is arguably the most sought after superhuman mercenary on the black market. Her success rate as an assassin is second to none but she also takes assignments as a spy, saboteur, or simply as hired muscle.
She established a base of operations in Emerald City during the city’s quieter days when it had a reputation as a safe place for people being pursued by the law to lay low. However, since the Silver Storm, she has stayed to exploit the myriad business opportunities that have arisen.
Her background has been buried so expertly that nothing is known for certain about her. What little law enforcement agencies think they know about her is due to many hours of investigation and a small amount of guesswork. She’s a female in her late 20s or early 30s. She is in peak condition and exhibits physical coordination that surpasses that of an Olympic-level gymnast. Her posture and demeanor suggest a military background while her tactical finesse indicates that she’s received training in an elite covert agency, most likely the Israeli Mossad.
Physical Description
Specialized Equipment
Killshot has superhuman dexterity and agility. These powers combined with her natural affinity for firearms and her advanced training make her a truly deadly adversary. She’s always heavily armed and is almost never without a gun (or three) somewhere on her person.
She is a highly skilled covert agent and is careful and meticulous. She maintains three distinct identities (American, British, and Israeli) that enable her to effectively disappear whenever she needs to escape attention.
Mental characteristics
Intellectual Characteristics
Despite her impressive hit list, and her frequent boasts that she is motivated solely by financial gain and the thrill of the hunt, Killshot has, on multiple occasions, walked away from lucrative assignments because she didn’t think the target “needed killing.” Like so much about her, the exact details of Killshot’s moral code remain a mystery, but it is clear she will only accept contracts on individuals whose behavior she feels merits a death sentence. Judging by the long list of high profile assassinations of which she’s suspected, many military officials, politicians, organized crime figures, and super-beings around the world have met her requirements.
Social
Contacts & Relations
As a professional assassin, Killshot has cordial relations with several rogue nations and criminal organizations. In addition, she has covert dealings with shadowy factions in the intelligence services of several “legitimate” governments.
Various intelligence agencies around the world are seeking Killshot for her role in a number of high-profile assassinations. She is certainly also being targeted by the loved ones or business partners of some of her former targets.
